or maybe...buy them in Vegas....then take all the $$ you saved and put it on one hand of black jack! If you win.....then put it all on another hand....then just keep doing that....double up 4 or 5 times and you'll have enough for a $4.50 Cube Steak at the Golden Nugget. Only problem is tracking down a $1 black jack table....ha,ha,ha!!! Believe me...I speak from experience!! :) :)

I am a master of the 1c slots! Apart from the smallest note they accept is $5!

I have stayed at the Golden Nugget before. Room prices are pretty reasonable and you are right next to the Freemont Street light show!

A quick google search of prices suggests Tim will save much more than $1.....quite enough to cover the cost of a new leisure suit. A fair guess would be half price in the USA.

i think you may be confused, we're talking about Wonder-Wipes.........you'd have to buy a lot of WW's to add up to the cost of a suit. :confused:

I am not at all confused......I have seen some of those porn star leisure suits.

Anyway, aren't we taking this all a bit seriously.....surely everybody buys things on vacation that are cheaper than they are at home??

Hey Andy...I'm not being too serious here. And of course people will purchase items while on vacation....but I'm still going to show the support for our distributors and try to steer customers in there direction. Most of our international customers know that we'd rather them purchase all EB/MM goods in their respective territories. So i don't get why people post telling us that they're going to do something we don't necesarily support.....thats all. Tim knows I love him(in a guitar buddy type of way of course)!!!

Cheers Guys!!

Poker fan huh?

My brother designed the set they used on "Midnight Poker" - the first UK TV Poker prog.

The trouble was the production company didn't copyright the idea doooohhh!

I've been along to watch a few of the tv shows being recorded and they were a gas.

He's over in the USA next week designing a set for a prog that shows how animals are raised, slaughtered and then butchered - not one for the squeamish, but I really enjoyed the UK version.

MMMM sorry to derail the thread - I just felt like "a chat" :eek:

They most certainly have! Charlie Argall Music has them in stock for your dealer to order with ease.
Give them a call at 1-877-488-1645 to find who in your area has them in the store right now.

Cheers!

He's been a successful designer for many years now. He has designed sets in The Royal Albert Hall, Sydney Opera House and the Welsh Millennium centre to name just a few. His work is frequently on the TV.

He knows "Jack Sh*t" about guitars though and I had to help him a lot in designing a set for a BBC music production a number of years ago.
It was great meeting up with an ol' acquaintance Pino Palladino, also talking to Dave Edmunds (Rockpile) and Andy Fairweather Low after the filming of the show.

His is a great job - which he never tires of and one which has kept a VERY healthy bank balance.
